Letter to the editor: True Catholics aren’t for choice

In response to the full page ad for the organization Catholics for Choice that ran in print in all Colorado Community publications the week of Oct. 20:

As a “cradle Catholic,” I am very concerned that readers of this paper might assume this organization represents mainstream Catholicism. It most assuredly does not. You cannot be a member of the Roman Catholic community and support Pro Choice. This statement has been issued by our bishops and pastors locally. How can anyone ignore the “rights” of the innocent human being in utero by focusing solely on a woman’s right to do what she wants with her body? The developing child is not part of a mother’s body. As Christians, we pray for a conversion of heart in all those who support “choice.”
